About Us
Hernando Beach on the "Adventure Coast"
Hernando Beach is a distinctive, residential waterfront community on the Gulf of Mexico. Mile long canals offer tranquil waterway passage through our neighborhoods bringing nature to every door. Our community and canal systems were officially platted out of Florida’s coastal wilderness in November 1959 making this the last manmade waterfront community in Florida. Surrounded by an estuary (the second largest sea grass bed in North America) on one side and the 11,206 acre Weeki Wachee Nature Preserve/State Park on three sides, our locale is unparalleled in offering a true “Adventure Coast” experience for both residents and recreational enthusiasts. The preservation of these ecological features now known as the Nature Coast Aquatic Preserve has shaped our past and present, and will provide the framework for the future growth. As well, our community blends diverse residential, business, marine, and commercial interests along a small, but vital corridor. Recreational and retail operations bring energy and entertainment along Shoal Line Boulevard. Commercial fishing activities and the public boat ramp are collected in the north end on Calienta Street. This balance has helped maintain the coastal charm of our “old” Florida heritage while encouraging a thriving restaurant district enjoyed by all of Hernando County. Our vision for the future respects the sensitive environmental and infrastructure concerns of a coastal community and the need to integrate these principles into future plans for our neighborhood.

We publish a monthly newsletter called The Beachcomber with community information, events and ads from local businesses which keeps our members informed about happenings in Hernando Beach. HBPOA is not a home owners association, we have no restrictive, or legal powers in our community nor do we police our community. However we are an active Civic Association with many committees whose volunteers look into and promote dialogue with our local and state governments about issues that are of concern to property owners of Hernando Beach. Our members are active in programs for the betterment and beautification of Hernando Beach. When we work together we are a powerful voice advocating for residents, empower property owners, promote a sense of camaraderie amongst our residents, and instill pride in our community. Hernando Beach Property Owners Association is the oldest organization in Hernando Beach founded in February 1992.
